Okay okay, there were only 5 people in the Masters 35+ B category at today's Livermore cross race, but I came in fourth and got to stand on the podium! The course was non-technical, fun and pretty flat -- lots of twisty serpentines in the grass and plenty of deep mulch. They got us on and off our bikes a couple of times with a pair of standard in and out barriers as well as a natural set of log barriers at the end of the far loop. There was a decent sized crew out for the first cyclocross race of the season.
Overheard at the start line of the Men's B, Master As and various and sundry other male categories just before the group took off: 9 year old little girl to her mother in a perfectly matter of fact manner, "Do people die doing this?"
Come out and play next weekend!
